Hi Andriesk. Thank you for responding to my comment. Do you still have any contact with Franna and Inness. I studied music with Franna, and they both sang on one of my albums. I lost contact with them about 15 years ago.

Sorry that was the last time I ever had any contact with them.

Just to get the record straigt. Jabulani was written by Finni De Gersiny. This in fact is 2 songs stitched together. The part with the sun in your eyed.... was written by Pat Berning

Thanks patwight for the correction. I was unaware of the history of this song.

By te way there is a cameo shot of Sonja Nel (AKA Nianell) from 1:48 - 1:55. This was when she was just a teenager. She is walking through the shot of the sun.

Thanks. I just love their voices and they were such great guys to work with, very professional, as I recall.
